Abstract:
In this study, I focus on the changing gender relationships between women and men and on women’s political rights in Kuwaiti society in particular. Specifically, I measure Kuwaiti citizens’ attitudes toward Kuwaiti women in political roles after Kuwaiti women gained their political rights, especially after May 16, 2005. Gender relationships continue to change, and in order to understand these changes it is important to examine the current cultural context in which they are occurring. This context includes political change, cultural development, the impact of the media and economic systems, as

Abstract:
The objectives of this study were to explore the levels of job satisfaction among nurses working in Kuwait hospitals, to identify those factors that influence the level of job satisfaction and dissatisfaction among these nurses, and to suggest solutions and recommendations for the nurses and the authorities in the Ministry of Health. A questionnaire and a series of interviews with nurses and managers were conducted. Data were collected from 436 nurses out of the sample of 500 in the 5 general government hospitals, representing the 5 health regions. Results showed that respondents over the age

Abstract:
In the aftermath of the Islamic resurgence movement, the call for the abolition of interest and the introduction of profit and loss sharing schemes gained momentum. Islamic writers have concentrated on describing the operations of an Islamic bank in an interest based economy and others have outlined the principles and functions of the Islamic economy. However there has not yet been a comprehensive study dealing with the implications of abolishing interest in a specific country. Therefore the major objective of this thesis is to examine the possible introduction of interest free banking in Kuwa

Abstract:
Kuwait benefitted from positive oil shocks in 1973-74 and 1979-80 but also suffered from a protracted negative oil shock from 1982 to 1988. We analyse the impact of these shocks on the Kuwaiti economy with the help of the real Dutch disease model which we first adapt to better reflect Kuwait's institutional characteristics. We do this by relaxing three key assumptions upon which the model is based. These are: (i) the oil shock is permanent and therefore all income is consumed; (ii) capital and labour are fixed in total supply and homogenous; and (iii) the oil income accrues directly to househo

Abstract:
This thesis examines Anglo-Kuwaiti patron-client relations between 1957-1963 using substantial archival material from Britain and the United States. The thesis has contributed to the literature of Anglo-Kuwaiti relations and to the theory of international clientelism. The theoretical model was applied to both primary and secondary source material linked to Anglo-Kuwaiti relations. This combined with a traditional diplomatic historical approach to the thesis, produced a number of conclusions and highlighted a number of themes that dominated Anglo-Kuwaiti relations. The themes that dominated the

Abstract:
The Kuwaiti economy has witnessed remarkable changes especially since the oil boom in the 1970s. Kuwait is one of the world's richest countries in terms of GNP per capita (WBA, 1997). However, the country has hitherto been entirely dependent on oil exports and as petroleum prices increased during the 1 970s, imports also increased. The government undertook a major industrial development program (such as manufacturing industries including cement and other building material, petrochemicals, plastic products and boats). With Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in the early 1 990s, much of the infrastructur
